<p> Dear Chapter delegates, <br>
</p>
<p>I am happy to congratulate the AMS/Membernova initiative at its
second anniversary. Milestones during this second year: <br>
</p>
<ul>
<li>
In October last year chapters admins were urged to specify their
requirements on base of a "Digital Transformation" questionnaire
holding a list of 91 questions. The deadline for an answer was
within 2
weeks.</li>
<li>I understand that the evaluation of such a survey takes some
time. A month or maybe two or three ... After half a year: did I
miss the outcome of this survey? Admitted: I'm annoyed since I
spend quite some time to seriously fill in the questionnaire
under tight time constrains. I did this while my inner voice
warned me
about the poor quality of the questionnaire and the hopelessness
to ever see any results.</li>
<li>AMS/Membernova took another chance to get attention — even
outside the Internet Society. In December
last year it leaked personal members information. This was
discussed in extenso on this mailing list. No need to elaborate
here.</li>
</ul>
<p>Did I miss something?<br>
</p>
<p>Looking forward to the 3rd anniversary March 2023, best regards<br>
</p>
<p>Klaus<br>

<pre>Dear Chapter delegates,
its now one year that we [Chapters admins] virtually gathered to discuss about urgently required improvements of membernova. [Anybody out there who can remember?] Some of us invested quite some work in this by tabling viable solutions to pressing issues.
Not only that we don't see any significant improvement of the situation - we also don't have much indication yet, what requirements were accepted, what might be considered, and which were rejected and why. There was some sign of life last July when Christine made some noise wrt some minor improvements of the (purely point and click) user interface — which still provides no option for syncing bulk data.
So the outcome - beside some very generic, not binding promises, and rather simple "improvements" — was negligible.
A final quote from October [after I sent a reminder]: [Christine Saegesser schrieb am 20.10.20 um 09:43:]

<pre>We expect to have an update by 20 November. Between now and then, Lauren’s team will contact you directly when additional information is needed.
We look forward to the next “AMS Working Group” meeting, which was scheduled to take place in October, and will be in touch shortly with a suggested date for this.
</pre>

<pre>leaves me puzzled about the year.
So lets be patient and look forward to the next anniversary in March 2022
Klaus
PS.: My offer still holds: AMS/Membernova can receive from me up-to-date info about legally registered Chapter members in any established data format at any time - as long as its not me who has to compare and feed membership changes one by one by hand into AMS. [Though you probably will do it anyhow]: please don't blame me or the Chapter for outdated data in AMS.
